A Great Man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 531: Crazy Nanjing Road

Two rural soldiers dragged a man over. The man looked up and when he saw Li Ziran, he shouted: "Lang Jun, they are using torture..."

This person was hired by Li Ziran after he came here to do odd jobs for him.

This person does not belong to the official establishment, so he does not need to follow any rules, and most of his activities are secretive.

So after seeing him, Li Ziran couldn't help but change his expression, "Shen An, are you going to give in?"

The man was pushed to his knees beside Shen An, and Shen An stretched out her hand to touch the top of his head, just like touching the flowers at home, very pampering.

"Tell me about Li Ziran's smuggling."

The man looked up, looking a little struggling.

"Be good."

Shen An was still coaxing Huahua, but Wen Xiaozhong pulled out a long knife.

"Do you want to break off your arm or your foot?"

These people are not spies. There is no need for any harsh interrogation. Just drawing a knife can scare them to death.

The man cried: "The villain said... they... they have a warehouse outside Xiongzhou City..."

Li Ziran's face turned pale and he sneered: "What warehouse? I don't know."

He felt that as long as he didn't admit it, Shen An wouldn't be able to do anything to him.

Shen An smiled: "A certain person led the Mangshan Army out of the city last night. Those thieves were waiting in front. It can be seen that someone was spreading the news... who was it?"

No one answered, and he continued to talk to himself: "More than five hundred people then started to hunt... But you never expected that the Mangshan Army could kill them all... Are you disappointed?"

Those businessmen didn't get the news, and now they heard Shen An talking about the fight last night, and then they knew what was going on.

"There are actually more than 500 people? Didn't you mean more than 100 people?"

"Liao Army... No, how did those thieves discover the Mangshan Army?"

"Someone has tipped off the news. Those who live in obscurity should be killed!"

"They were all killed by the Mangshan Army...one hundred people killed five hundred people...my God...this general can't do it, right?"

"How dare you! How can there be such a famous general in this dynasty? I'm just waiting for you!"

"In the past, they said that Shen Taizhao was good at both civil and military affairs. They still didn't believe it, but now they believe it. Who dares to say that Shen Taizhao only knows about civil affairs in the future? I will beat him to death with his big mouth."

"Those thieves are dead, and we can travel safely again..."

The businessmen gradually became excited.

"Thank you for the imperial edict."

Someone stood up and saluted to thank Shen An.

Then everyone saluted.

"Thank you for the imperial edict."

The sound was loud and reached the Liao people.

Immediately, the Liao people gathered around.

They saw Shen An and those black armored Mangshan troops.

Some people were stunned, some people's eyes flickered, and there was anger in their eyes.

"Do you have anything else to say?"

Shen An looked up at Li Ziran and asked.

Li Ziran forced a smile and said: "These are all false accusations, those goods have nothing to do with someone!"

"Do you think that since you are a servant, I won't dare to deal with you?"

Shen An's words were acquiesced by Li Ziran.

Shen An stretched out his hand, Wen Xiaozhong handed over the long knife, and then was pushed away by Huang Chun.

Do you understand or not?

Huang Chun glared at him and handed him the riding crop.

Shen An took the riding whip, stood up slowly and said: "You smuggled those goods...copper coins, copper materials, many materials...these things will cause a money shortage in the Song Dynasty. If the Liao people have more money, the Song Dynasty will have less money. And you don’t have to pay taxes for smuggling...so Bao Zheng, the envoy of the Third Division, will chop you up alive, and even the officials can’t stop you..."

Snapped!

Shen An was whipped vigorously, and Li Ziran was lying on the ground wailing. A businessman sighed: "He just came to inspect in the morning with an official look, and now he has been beaten into a dog by the imperial edict..."

"Who else?"

As soon as he turned his eyes, all the officials knelt down.

"Please wait for mercy."

They not only smuggled strategic materials but also ordinary goods.

"Supporting the enemy, evading taxes...how do you want to die?"

Most people who dare to smuggle have no position. All they see is the excitement of smuggling and the money they make, and these people are ruined.

Hair distribution and transformation are unlikely to be effective.

Li Ziran probably knew that he was doomed, so he howled: "You have no right to deal with so-and-so, you lynched so-and-so... the officials can't spare you."

Yes, it is a mistake for the waiter to make a mistake, but you, Shen An, have no right to deal with it.

You can take Li Ziran back to Beijing, but you have no right to whip him.

Shen An just smiled, turned his eyes, and saw many sergeants gathered around the goods. Although they were covering up, they could still see that they were holding something in their hands.

This is to prepare for a fight to the death.

If there is a fire in the market, the burned goods will be valuable, but the key point is that it will destroy confidence. In the future, businessmen will no longer trust the sergeants guarding the market...

Those Liao people couldn't help but be happy, and someone said: "We will testify that Shen An whipped Li Ziran."

Li Ziran shouted: "You have a bright future, and it's not worth making a mistake for someone. Let someone go, and someone won't care about it."

He felt that Shen An would cherish the feathers, so he had some hope.

Huang Chun sneered: "Do you know that someone will be afraid after my husband returns?"

"My husband's merits can break someone's legs. For someone like you, this merits can kill you."

Damn it!

How could it still be like this?

Who would break someone's hands and feet to offset their own merit?

Everyone looked at Shen An in front of them, and they couldn't help but feel that there were ten thousand divine beasts running wildly in their hearts.

If it were a meritorious service, let alone offsetting it, I would rather exaggerate it.

"Shen An has made many contributions."

yes!

This man has made numerous meritorious deeds, and if they are not offset, there really will be no way to place them.

So he is confident.

But this method is too weird, right?

"You're not qualified!"

Shen An walked to the front of the Liao people and said: "The Nanjing Road was disgraced last time. If the revenge fails this time, how many people will lose their jobs? How many people will be exiled to desolate places to join the barbarians? What other misfortunes are there? Will Dan lose his life?"

Several Liao people were stunned.

After seeing Shen An, they knew that the interception failed.

If you fail, you will fail, but more than 500 people went to intercept and kill the Mangshan Army and were completely wiped out.

Nanjing Road is in trouble.

The Liao people had nothing to say.

Shen An nodded, "Go and tell those people in Nanjing Road that Shen will stay for a while. If you have the courage, come."

The Liao man in front sneered: "You have to be careful."

When the news spreads back, the Nanjing Road officials will go crazy. God knows what a group of crazy officials will do.

Shen An stared at him and said calmly: "Shen is looking forward to this. Let's... see you there."

He was surrounded by people and went out, leaving behind a group of stunned Liao people.

"All dead?"

No one believed it.

"Go and have a look."

Someone was going to inquire about the news, but before they could go out, news came from the Song people.

"Jingguan... there are many corpses and horse corpses..."

After the Chanyuan Alliance, the war had moved away from the Xiongzhou people and the Liao people.

Who has seen Jingguan?

No.

A group of people ran outside, and Li Ziran and others wanted to follow.

Death or exile is their final destination, so run away if you can.

Li Ziran said happily while running: "Shen An really doesn't dare to arrest us. Run quickly and go to the Liao people. We have money... Yes, we have to go back and get the money. After we get the money, we will go to the Liao people." there."

The officials all ran after him. Their residences were nearby, so they had to run to the south to get out.

But those sergeants involved in smuggling were different. They ran north.

A group of courtyards formed a residential area, and Shen An had arrived.

He stood in the middle of the street, with Rao Chunlai beside him and a group of big men behind him.

"They're definitely coming here."

Shen An said firmly: "It's not easy to take advantage of people in front of people... It's easy for those sergeants to die."

That's how people are. They start thinking about losing everything, but when life appears, all their courage will dissipate. Even if those sergeants knew that there was something fishy about Shen An's departure, they would still choose to believe that this was a way out and start running away.

"The officials will come here because they are greedy. The sergeants will go north because they are afraid of death..."

"I thought they would just go north."

Rao Chunlai said: "How about making a bet..."

People in the Song Dynasty loved gambling and gambled on everything.

"What bet?"

"Dinner, whoever loses can't have dinner."

"good."

"good."

Before he finished speaking, everyone heard footsteps.

"you lose."

Shen An took two steps forward, just as Li Ziran ran in and screamed when he saw him.

"You...why do you want to kill everyone! You madman, I curse you to be a slave for generations...for generations..."

When Wen Xiaozhong came over, he slapped him with his backhand.

Li Ziran fell to the ground and cried like a child.

"So-and-so was wrong, so-and-so had done his duty faithfully before, so-and-so had worked conscientiously in the palace...so-and-so was wrong..."

The officials wanted to run away, but people from the Imperial City Department rushed in from behind, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

"I'll leave this to you. I'm going to intercept those sergeants, and I'm going to dig a hole for the Liao people later... This is a good thing, but people don't have enough support!"

Shen An took the people all the way back, and when they arrived, the sergeants were already trapped.

The sergeants knelt in an orderly manner and shouted in an orderly manner.

"Spare my life..."

"Scum!"

The habit of doing business in the military still exists, and even civilian officials are doing business.

Doing business in the military is to subsidize military expenditures, but if things continue like this, there will inevitably be many drawbacks.

The same is true for officials doing business.

This is a commercial Song Dynasty, which brings a lot of negative problems.

Later generations say that the Song Dynasty was prosperous and unrivaled in commerce.

But who saw those troops and officials doing business?

"Hurry back!"

Shen An rode his horse back.

He knew that the Song Dynasty's business policy would change sooner or later, and it would also fail if it did not change.

The army must become a killing machine!

Officials should return to their duties.

So he came to investigate smuggling.

When this result reaches Bianliang, it is just a seed.

Will Renzong care?

He can take care of it, but it is just a headache. He will deal with these officials and sergeants.

System innovation is impossible.

But his days are numbered.

On the other side of the Baigou River, a group of officials and generals were waiting.

"Go and see if Jingguan is real!"

One official was roaring, but more officials were weak.

"Of the more than five hundred elite men, how many people did the Mangshan Army dispatch?"

"Someone saw them leaving the city with their own eyes. There were more than a hundred people, one person and two horses."

"How can more than a hundred people kill more than five hundred people? Even a flock of sheep will lose a few!"

"I don't know."

"idiot!"

The officials went crazy, "Go, kill Shen An, go kill Shen An!"

"Let's wait until the news is confirmed."

The generals were obviously calmer.

But the news never came back, and all the people sent out disappeared.

Damn it!

What does it mean?

"Send more people, go quickly!"

A group of civilian officials were roaring, and the military generals finally couldn't bear it anymore and sent out elite scouts.

"These are the most elite scouts. They can even get into the Song Dynasty's palace."

The generals promised very reservedly.

"That Shen An...what's his strategy?"

"It's not that good. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net is said to be very vulgar. He had conflicts with our envoys several times. It's just that the Song Emperor was partial."

"That's good!"

A Han official stared across the river and murmured: "It's time to come back!"

Everyone had already finished their dinner when they heard the sound of horse hooves.

"Only one horse!"

The boat came over immediately, and sure enough, only one scout was brought back.

"how?"

"Speak quickly!"

Thanks to the book friend "Feng Yun Shen" for rewarding the alliance leader, I have another alliance leader. ?(????????????)?
